<br/><br/> This paper highlights the high cost of military security in Pakistan over the past 20 years.  With the single agenda of its policy-makers being to neutralise India's military might, defence spending has always got a higher priority than development expenditure.  More importantly, the military has had a major role in the division of national resources.  The military's role as the key player in power politics and decision-making has allowed it to take a major chunk of the financial pie. - Reproduced.
